This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

It is already possible to obtain a licence to carry firearms for particular specified purposes, such as shooting for sport or controlling deer populations, so we're not sure what else you'd like to happen.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you could start a new petition asking the UK Government or Parliament to introduce a licence to allow people to carry firearms for self-defence, if that's something you'd like to happen.
